"Robotech/Voltron 5" is the fifth and final issue of Robotech/Voltron, the first Robotech comic series printed since "Prelude to the Shadow Chronicles" seven years earlier. It was the first serious Robotech crossover, although comedic Ninja High School and Dinosaurs For Hire crossovers had previously been printed in the early issues of Robotech II: The Sentinels.
Publisher's Summary[]
FINAL ISSUE!!! The Drule witch Haggar uses her black magic to exploit a critical vulnerability of Robotechnology and the SDF-1 itself. The clock is also ticking as the celestial window to return home is about to close for the displaced crew of the the Super Dimension Fortress and the Lion Force. The only hope to save their universes from the rip in the time-space continuum may lie with the return of Rick Hunter and a long-lost piece of Voltron. This astounding conclusion to the epic mecha crossover is not to be missed!

Continuity[]
- When Roy approaches the Comet, a bright Angel appears, and offers to take Roy to the end of the Universe. Roy says that all he wants is Rick and Claudia back. This closely mirrors a similar scene in the Voltron episode The Little Prince.
- The comic suggests that it is the irregular fold after a Robeast attack to the ship that causes the SDF-1's Fold Drives to disappear, as well as the power issues that will cause a need for modular transformation.
- The end of this comic is set directly after the end of "The Long Wait", as Rick and Minmei have just been found within the ship.
